'No Good Deed Goes Unpunished' & 'Give Me a Hand' & 'A Doggone Nightmare'
The People’s Court PodcastShow Notes
First, the plaintiff says she took in the defendants, fellow church members, out of the goodness of her heart. She claims they brought bedbugs into her home, caused a toilet overflow, and stole a flat-screen TV. She’s suing for property damage, an unpaid loan, and back rent. The defendants deny bringing in bedbugs and say the infestation likely came from a couch the plaintiff received from her friend’s brother the same day they moved in.
Then, the plaintiff says he’s known the defendant both personally and professionally for years. But after a disagreement, the defendant allegedly exploded in rage and threw him across the floor, breaking his wrist. He’s suing for medical bills and lost wages. The defendant denies laying a finger on the plaintiff, claiming the plaintiff was drunk, stumbling, and injured himself without any help from anyone else.
Plus, the plaintiff says she was collecting her mother’s mail when one of the defendant’s Rottweilers grabbed her Maltese and ran off with it. Her dog was injured, and she was bitten on the hand. She claims the defendant is the registered owner of the dog and breeds Rottweilers in his backyard. She’s suing for medical bills, pain and suffering, and property damage. The defendant denies ownership of the dog involved, saying his dogs couldn’t have escaped an 8-foot fence and were in his yard at the time. He says neighbor accusations aren’t proof.
